The Poem

i have been wanting to post something for several days now. But a strange and mysterious force keeps sucking my inspiration from me.

Is it the force of laziness? or perhaps of exhaustion, which I am always exhausted after a day in school.

I wrote a poem. I am editing it. It is for you, who I have hurt. I'll finish it and let you read it. You turn into an adult in a few days time. I hope you are well, with or without me in your now different life.

Your smiles are all I need to make me feel that everything's fine. Please don't take away the sunshine that is yourself. The darkness comes whenever you're away. I miss you so badly, each and everyday.

I have more to say, but this is enough. I love you always, and forever, goodbye.

Babalik ka pa ba?

Akala ko okay na.

Hindi pa pala.

Six Degrees of Separation

It took a song to make me realize I'm over what ever happened last January-March. My cousin made me listen to The Script's song entitled: "Six Degrees of Separation". Well, like most Script songs, it's about a broken hearted guy who's trying to get over his ex, much similar to "The Man who can't be moved" and "Nothing".

I listened to it and I was like.. "okay, this is about being broken hearted..... and something else... now what?" I usually like songs by The Script. Mostly because I'm a dramatic weirdo. But for some reason, this time, the lyrics didn't really speak to me. I just noted that the song is good and it ended there. What does this mean?

I'll tell you what it means, it means that I am okay. That there is no drama in my life. And yes. I am happy. mwahahaha.

Lightsaber story

Demons were after my soul. It was three AM. everything was dark. The dogs were doing their creepy howls. I was walking around the dark in my pajamas. I was yelling for my mom, for anyone for help. No one was there. I was carefully making my way. I could feel the Demon's presence.

When at last, they made themselves felt, I took out my weapon, a light saber! and with it's glowing prowess, I slashed and hacked at them. When they overpowered me, I saw my mom through the darkness. I asked for help. She looked annoyed at me and said, "This is just a prank by your sister."

After that, everything went back to normal, everyone was laughing at me. I was beginning to feel silly. And then my alarm started ringing. I was awake.

That was a really strange dream.

"Sa Pilipinas" - Jose Rizal

This post is for the ufortunate students who are asked to do a report on one of Rizal's poetry. namely the poem entitled: "Sa Pilipinas". I couldn't find this anywhere online. So I'll be the one to give it to the internet. YOU'RE WELCOME UNGRATEFUL STUDENT WHO WILL COPY AND PASTE THIS ON YOUR HOMEWORK.

SA PILIPINAS

ni Jose Rizal

Maganda't maalab na tulad ng hiyas na sa langit buhat, 

Kahika-hikayat, malinisna gaya ng talang ninikat,

Kung ang mga ulap ay kinukulayan ng bughaw na wagas,

Natutulog man ang isang diyosang Kayumangging balat.

Ang bukas ng yakap ay buong pagsintang hinahagkan-hagkan

ng bulang manipis na dala ng alon niyong karagatan;

Ang kanlurang pantas, pati kanyang ngiti'y sinasamba naman, 

gayon din ang dulo ng ubaning lupa'y ang aking ligaya't pag ibig. 

Niluntiang miro't mga masanghayang bulaklak ng "rosas",

saka Asusena ang sa kanyang noo'y ikapit na hiya, 

oh, mga "artista", purihin ang ating Mutyang Pilipinas!

cursed song?

My cousin told me about a supposed "cursed song". They said that the composer, and his wife committed suicide after listening to the song. Since then, 100 others committed suicide.

Curiosity got the better of me and I downloaded the song. It's entitled "Gloomy Sunday" otherwise known as the "Hungarian Suicide Song". I listened to it. The first time I heard it, to me it was kinda creepy. But then I started enjoying it. The original Hungarian one was creepier than the english one that I listened to. I'll post the english version in a while.

The composer of the song is a Hungarian named Reszo Seress. He composed the song in 1932. and since then, a lot of people have reported to have committed suicide after listening to it.

I listened to it a couple few times. It is true that the song is depressing as hell. I mean, if you listen to it immediately after a break up, I guess you would commit.

I think this urban legend is busted. But then again, I listened to this song earlier this year. I had it on repeat on my mp3 player, and I was depressed as f*ck then. I stopped listening to it when weird things started happening, like I would always wake up at exactly 3am and the Dogs would howl a terrifying howl. Like a pack of wolves. The kind of howl they do when they sense another being present. I once experienced, the same moment I opened my eyes, the dogs started howling. It made the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.

When my friends advised me to delete the song, I did so. and I stopped waking up at exactly 3am. and slowly, I felt better.

Listen to it yourself, maybe it'll have a weird something on you to. This is Billy Holiday's version. It's a lot less creepy. Listen to it... if you dare.

Forgotten Homework? No Problem!

Okay, I was expecting school related stress. But I didn't think it would come sooner rather than later. I forgot about the homework that's due tomorrow, and I'm having trouble finding this poem I need for my report next Saturday! Because of my frustrations, I am going to give you ten steps on how to handle yourself after finding out that there is homework due tomorrow and you completely forgot about it:

1. Panic! No. it's not going to help you finish your homework. But it would sure as hell help you get the the negativity out of your system. Upon receiving the information about the forgotten homework, Give yourself 5-10 minutes to panic and insult yourself for forgetting. if you panic longer than the said time, you need a good slap on the head.

2. Calm Down. Now that you've panicked, it's time to calm down. take deep breaths. and then asses what needs to be done.

3. Organize. Organize your thoughts and emotions and motivate yourself to finish the work load.

4. Play your favorite music. To help you gain focus, and for motivation, play your favorite music. This will help you forget the frustration you had earlier.

5. work. Get to doing what needs to be done.

6. Research. find out everything you need to know. Remember, your friends are done. You can ask them for help. like, getting references and such.

7. Relax. Pace yourself. The deadline might be just around the corner, but rushing your work won't do you any good. Relax and just make sure everything is a-okay.

8 . Edit your work. When you're done, you will feel relieved and happy. Don't forget to save and edit. make sure your work is all correct and presentable.

9. Smile. Because your work load is done.

10. Celebrate. Do this by either sleeping, or eating, or however you like. But if you happen to finish 10 minutes before your class starts, I suggest you skip this step and run. run as fast as you can to turn in the work you sacrificed sleep for!

Goodluck with your work!

P.S. I am not entirely sure on how helpful this is, but I hope it does more than just confuse you.

Dating Tips for the Socially Inept

I have about as much experience in dating as a potato. But here are a few tips for those who want to go out of their way to find happiness in the company of the opposite sex. (or same sex if you're gay)

1. Say Something! I know, that when you're with the one you really like, your brain seems to go on overdrive. resulting in a temporary disability to talk. But don't let the silence control you! Say something! spill your emotions! Let her/him know how you feel!

2. Shut up! Don't just talk about yourself, ask about their day. Be a good listener as well as a talker.

3. Don't be the girlfriend/boyfriend. Well, not yet anyway. instead, just be a friend. enjoy each others company.

4. Don't let the conversation Die. this will result in "dead air" and it only takes 4 seconds for a silence to grow awkward. Tell a joke. Just not one of those lame "why did the chicken cross the road" jokes.

5. Give them chocolate. Let them know that you're sweet like the candy bar. <3

6. keep your phone away. If you're constantly texting, or fiddling with your phone, your date might think you're not interested and be offended. Keep it away. it's a sign of respect.

7. Past is Past. Do not bring into the conversation past relationships. It might indicate that you're not really over your ex. leave him in the past. The future is in front of you. explore it. live it. enjoy it. 

8. Be discreet. If you're a big eater, eat a lot before leaving home and eat just a little during your date. Don't let your date know right away that you're a big eater. Like what Ramon Bautista said, "turn off ang babae na nag eextra rice sa first date."

9. Show interest. When asking about what they do for a living, hobbies or whatever, Be genuinely interested. ask how they do it, or have them explain something that they really like, i.e. cars. They will appreciate it.

10. be yourself. I cannot stress this enough. just be yourself and everything will be fine. Relax and have fun. If it's meant to be, it's meant to be. Otherwise, just walk away.


Now, I would like to thank the following people for providing some of the tips in the fore mentioned list:

Bryan Reyes. This self proclaimed Mr. Pogi of Sampaloc Manila can be seen hanging out around Sta. Mesa, telling anyone who would listen of his supposed "kapogian".

Dietricht Asuncion. An IT Student from PNU, and loyalty awardee from Roosevelt College Cubao. He lives his days in Las Pinas as his girlfriend's boyfriend.

Hannah Ornopia. The pretty lady next door, who dreams of writing for fashion magazines. A COCian whom I hardly see these days.

Rocelle Tangi. The rich girl of Pasay City. Don't let her looks in this photo fool you. She has long shed the image of adolescence. A writer in the making, she's under Bryan's hypnosis for almost two years now.









This list would not be possible without your help! You guys are awesome, but I'm always awesome-er.

What NOT to do with Pets

I have owned and raised pets since I was eight years old. Here are a ten things you must not do to your pets. WARNING: These are incredibly stupid.

1. Do not feed dynamite to your pets. I dunno. I think it might cause them to die. or maybe explode. it's one or the other, or both! Well, yeah. when you explode you die. So yeah, I really don't think feeding dynamite to your pets when you run out of pet food is a good idea.

2. Do not teach them to fly. Unless your pet is a bird, I suggest you don't throw them off the roof in an insane attempt to teach them flight. Here's a tip to know if your pet does not possess the ability to fly: If they have four legs instead of wings, they can't fly. I think you're smart enough to see that.

3. Do not throw them in open fires. pets, like you, are NOT fire proof.

4. Do not teach them to drive. Apart from the fact that they have no sense of direction, they also cannot reach the foot pedals, let alone use the steering wheel. It will be a waste of time and a vehicle to even attempt to teach a pet to drive. But if you do succeed, congratulations! You have done the impossible!

5. Do not teach them to fix electronics. Pets cannot see colors. So they can't really distinguish between the red and yellow wire.

6. Do not let them use cellphones. They will call their other pet friends and have parties in your house when you're away, resulting in property damage. Also, if they learn to communicate with cellphones, they might try to plan a revolt against the human race, resulting in our downfall.

7. Do not tape them to the wall. If your pet is constantly going outside, and you fear for their safety, taping them to the wall is not the way to go. It will be a pain not only to you but for the pet as well when you try to get them off the wall. It might also cause baldness in pets.

8. Do not clean them with the vacuum cleaner. Is your pet dirty but you don't have time to clean them? The vacuum cleaner is NOT the solution to your troubles! Not only will it frighten them, but the vacuum might suck them in, resulting in more filth and trouble. Take time off. give him a bath. It's good for the both of you.

9. Do not give them chocolate. They will die. seriously. don't give it to them.

10. Do not send them to space. They might become more successful than you. Now, do you really want that?


NOTE: this list is just for fun. I understand that the reader is sane enough not to try any of the things mentioned above. Cruelty to animals is punishable by law.

Mind Your Business!

I don't like to pry on other people's business. Mainly my classmates. If they got issues, they can either resolve it themselves, or talk to their friends or if they like, me.

I respect their business. They can do whatever. But with the respect I give other people and their business, I am ridiculed. My friend Melvin is an ASS. He's seriously the most annoying bag of bones I have ever had the misfortune to meet. he and I and another classmate were talking about stuff, and we came to the topic of our classmates. He was teasing me for not knowing any of the gossip around. I hit him over the head with the paperback I was reading. It felt good.

I mean, really? You're making fun of me for NOT knowing gossip? well, sorry for respecting people's privacy you conceited little prick! 

He seriously ticked me off and he still thinks I'm kidding. God, what is wrong with that guy? No wonder people don't like him very much. But for some reason, we are still friends. I wonder why. Must be the Rooseveltian bond or something.

Anyway, he is an ass. Avoid him at all cost. And don't worry. He knows damn well I find him annoyingly irritating!

Business

I have so many PS2 games. Some are original, most are Pirated. Some of the original games belonged to my cousin. But since he left for the states, I'm left with his games. Well, not all. I don't know where the other ones are. Anyway, the ones I have are: Resident Evil Code: Veronica X, Silent Hill 2, Tekken 4, SmackDown: Shut Your Mouth and Extermination. All the other original ones, either I bought or was a gift.

Now, some of the above mentioned games, I don't like. Examples are: Resident Evil because I'm too scared to play it. I don't know, I just panic, okay? Extermination. Stupid game. Doesn't make sense to me. and Smack Down. I have out grown my love of wrestling. Done are the days of my horseplay with the other kids. I've been wanting to sell them online for some time now. So I sent my cousin a message asking if I could. He gave me the go signal. and so, I posted them on sulit.com.ph and on facebook.

One of my games will be sold on Saturday. Superman Returns was the first one I put up for sale. I don't like superman, okay? We made a deal at 500. and I can't wait to give it to him and get my money!

With my upcoming first sale, I'm psyched! and I hope the other games will be sold too. Hey, maybe you want to buy my games too? Just click the link above. Drop me a line if you're interested.

NOT DROPPED!

I have waited. and waited. and waited. It was late, but it happened! They changed my grade! yipee!  I am no longer Dropped in our Communication Research Class and I can now take the next class.

AFTER:

God is Great! I don't care what my friends say.

Paul McCartney: Dead?

When I was in high school, my teacher told us about these subliminal messages in Beatles' songs when you play them backwards. So that night, I searched the net and found this video of Beatles songs played backwards with "Satanic Messages".

Now, when I listened to this, I wasn't a fan yet. I didn't become a fan until my second year in College. After hearing this, I swore to myself that I would NEVER listen or like the Beatles. Obviously I didn't keep my word. :P

The other day, I was bored outta my mind. and since it was the season of spooks, I decided to revisit the video above. the messages such as "Will Paul be back as superman?" and "Paulie is bloody" got me thinking, why the references to Paul McCartney? He's alive, why are they saying he's dead?

 So I went on Google and searched "Paul McCartney dead" and there I was surprised to find articles and videos saying that Paul McCartney died in November of 1966, and was replaced by a look a like. I read them all from this site.  

The first link I gave you has pictures of Paul McCartney from before and after 1966. Honestly, I don't really know what to believe. Can the beatles hush up a big story like this? Or is all of this just a marketing scheme? I'm keeping an open mind to the possibilities. They say that John Lennon was killed because he wanted to expose to the world about the "Faul McCartney". They say that he was really guilty about it and was leaving clues and messages in their songs and album covers. Examples of these are the covers for their Abbey Road and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band album. watch the videos below to learn more.

The urban legend said that Paul McCartney, stormed out of the recording studio after an argument with his band mates, got into his car, drove into the night and died in a car crash. It is reported that his head was decapitated and all his teeth were broken. I read more about the issue from this site.

The legend goes on to say  that The Beatles decided to keep it hushed up because, with the height of Beatlemania, people might commit suicide if they learn that Paul was dead. Some say that the illuminati made them do it so that they can continue on to control the masses with popular culture. 

They agreed to get William Campbell, a police officer from Ontario Canada and winner of a Paul look a like contest to take Paul's place secretly. 

Well, if you're as big a Beatle fan as I am, you'd want to do more research about this. So I'm going to give a couple of links to videos giving arguments why Paul is dead, and rebuttals. You decide whether or not this urban legend is real.

 Here are videos rebutting arguments.

honestly? I don't know what to believe. Just read the articles on the sites I posted. For me, the pictures are really worth more than the rumors themselves. I'm still looking for rebuttals against the pictures. It could be photoshop, or something, but then again it could be something else. Maybe I should just let it be....

Beatlemania! (Again)

Everyone is getting stressed over the enrollment. I don't blame them. Come monday, marks the start of the second semester, and well... we're not exactly on the enrollment list. ehem. I don't want to talk about that. I already think about that at night, I don't want to spend my waking moments worrying. 

Instead, let's listen to some music. Good music for that matter. Well, to me anyway. It relaxes me. Every once in a while, I take a Beatles song, and make it my life's song. or rather I put it on repeat on iTunes until I get sick of it. (lol. I don't get sick of Beatles songs. :P)

And the song of the moment is "You really got a hold on me". I don't know, It just started playing, and well, "It really got a hold on me."  hahaha. ehem.

The lyrics of the song really spoke to me. and I feel like slow dancing to this song. Listen to this and some other Beatles tracks. I swear, they are awesome.
here are two verses of the song that I really like.

"I don' like you. But I love you. seems that I'm always thinking of you.

Oh, ho, ho, you treat me badly. I love you madly.

You really got a hold on me."

and the second verse:

"I wanna leave you
Don't wanna stay here
Don't wanna spend another day here
Oh ho ho, I wanna split now
I just can't quit now
You've really got a hold on me."

So go and enjoy this Beatles song! :3

The inevitable

looks like I have no choice but to beg for my life. just kidding. I now know what I must do.

1. Enroll myself tomorrow. I heard Lubid's encoding grades tonight. Hope that's true. Because if he does, everyone else gets to enroll no problem. Me? I just need to punch in the classes I can and try and take care of that CommRes problem on Saturday. 
2. ACE form. After I take care of the problem with the grade, Which I hope will be SOON, I need to ACE form the class I left out because my prof is a douche. 
3. Lines. Stay in line and take care of the ACE form. ASAP. I don't really know how long this will be, but I hope not too long. But I doubt it on account of, everyone has to use the ACE form. Bummer. my prof is a douche
4. I don't really know what the fifth step will be. hehehe. 

But that is my course of action because of the inevitable fact that my prof is a douche. Oh, how he pisses me off.
